What is the main difference between body waves and surface waves?
Surface waves travel slower than body waves.
Why can you not hear the echo if you stand 20 meter away and shout towards it?
You are too close to the surface from which the sound waves are reflected. As a result you brain cannot distinguish between the original sound waves and the reflexted sound waves (the echo).
What type of materials will reflect radio waves?
Radio waves will be reflected by any surface where the electromagnetic properties of the space change. e.g. moving from free space into solid material.
How many flat surface does a cone have in 3Dshapes?
Its base is a flat surface
How many times do waves vibrate in 2 seconds?
Hundred times
Waves that travel at the surface such as Raleigh and long waves?
Raleigh waves are surface waves that occur in many types of media, such as water and the Earth's crust. They cause the ground to roll up and down in a wave-like motion during an earthquake. Long waves, or long-period ocean waves, are also surface waves that have longer wavelengths and occur in the ocean due to forces such as gravity and wind.
What 2 waves are surface waves?
Love waves and Rayleigh waves are surface waves
How many types or surface waves are there?
i think 2?
What general name is given to waves that travel along the surface of a material such as Rayleigh and Love waves?
Surface waves
What are the two types of seismic surface waves?
body waves and surface waves
Do p waves or surface waves move faster?
No. Surface waves are slower than both P and S-waves.
What are an example of surface wave?
Examples of surface waves include water waves on the ocean's surface, seismic surface waves that travel along the earth's surface during an earthquake, and electromagnetic waves that propagate along the boundaries between different materials.
What are the three seismic waves in order?
The three types of seismic waves are: P waves S waves Surface waves ( two surface waves. Riley surface wave and love surface wave named after scientists
Where do surface waves occur?
Surface waves occur at the boundary between two different mediums, such as air and water, or air and land. They travel along the interface, transferring energy in the form of ripples or undulations on the surface. Examples of surface waves include ocean waves, seismic waves, and electromagnetic waves.
What kind of waves can travel through earth and along earths surface?
Seismic waves are the types of waves that can travel through the Earth and along its surface. There are two main types of seismic waves: body waves (such as primary and secondary waves) that travel through the Earth's interior, and surface waves (such as Love and Rayleigh waves) that travel along the Earth's surface.
What does surface waves travel through?
surface waves can only travel along the surface.
Where do waves occurs?
surface waves occur on the surface its visible to people and people can surface
